By Jason champagne July 26, 2013

It's the Android 4.2 version, that Google has integrated the ability to add a second user profile on the system. In addition to the announcement of the new Android 4.3 features of Google officially announced, we learned that a new option allows the addition of restricted profiles.

As mentioned in the title, this manipulation is accessible on your shelves. To download the application to an equivalent for your Smartphone, turn me (requires be Roote):

To start, we will see how to add a new profile on a Tablet PC:

Go to 'Settings' and then 'Device'select 'Users' section and select "Create a user or profile"a window appears, allowing you to choose between the creation of a standard user will have their own applications and a dedicated work space. Alternatively, there is the creation of a user with restricted rights.

If you do not have a password, PIN, model, or other, you can create directly to ensure the security of data.Finally, the limited profile is created!

Now that the profile is created, it will to the latter configure constraints :

Go to the account for a list of all available Anwendungen.Block or the applications of your choice via the button switch on / switch off

To pass on the restricted account, unroll quick settings menu and press photo of the profile to use.

This little innovation offers a quick and easy way to separate the access on the same shelf. However, this method provides no 100% security, as a result of the use that will be carried out on the system.

In fact, nothing prevents, that a user profile uninstall applications limited or have even some access to multimedia data of the standard account for example.

People, who like to find more effective a solution or publishing controlled and secure the access of their children on an application provided for this move. Why not this, we suggest to this tutorial (compatible smartphones and tablets) include:

Facebook updating their Android app outside of Google Play for some users

Facebook

For the past couple of days users have been seeing a download notification for a new Facebook build (140579 or 141046). The notification would get stuck for many folks, and reboots or battery pulls just caused another notification and stuck download. The whole thing pretty much acted like a clunky, amateurish malware attack.

It's not. The update is legit, and from Facebook. They are pushing out an update outside of the Play Store (which is a direct violation of the developer agreement, by the way) to some users to test new features. If you have the setting checked to allow installations from unknown sources (sideloading) you might have seen this. You also might still be stuck fiddling with the notification that won't go away. To fix that, hook up with some Wifi -- Facebook won't download the update while you're using your data connection.

Let's ignore that Facebook may be breaching their developer agreement. Lets also ignore that they are silently pushing software to a users phone, when that user is unaware and didn't ask for it. We'll also overlook the way Facebook thinks all Wifi is free and unlimited. But we can't overlook the fact that they let this go on for three days and still haven't posted a little something to their blog or dropped a little blurb in the Google Play app description to let the users -- you know, the ones who are worried what the hell this fake Facebook download is doing -- know what was going on.

Anyhoo, if you see the notification about it, just turn on your Wifi and it will overwrite your current Facebook app with something -- nobody knows exactly what, because Facebook hates change logs, too -- newer, and hopefully better.
